Probably sow a commercial, don't remember for a fact.

It was 2005 or 2006 and I was watching the Dogfights Hell over Hanoi episode, and the Aces High commercial came on. I was so jacked, I recorded the episode when it repeated on VHS, just so I could watch the commercial several times.

I then dug out my copy of CFS2 and started playing around on that while lurking the forums and trying to scrape together the bucks to get a better PC.

I tried the two week trial and then it was a while before I actually subscribed, but I kept lurking on the forums.

I then cancelled for several months when I was too busy to fly and then re-upped after the big graphics update.

hitech, if you ever wondered..... the commercial worked at least once!

Commercial back in 06 or so....then quit for a while came back in 09.  Mention to every pilot I fly with and see if it gets them interested.  Thought about making a flier of some sort and putting it up in the Crew lounges for AA/AE at O'hare, Laguardia, JFK, Boston, DCA, Miami, DFW, and LAX...also thought about some of the FBO's or Flight Safety or CAE also in the training center in DFW cuz I'm gonna be there at the AA flight academy for the next couple of months...etc., for upgrade training...potentially nab a few pilots out of the 12,000 working for AA and the 3,000 working for Eagle...maybe it might be in your interest to make a liason with some of the other airlines out there...I'm sure there are alot of potential clients.  I of course would require some sort of a "finder's fee."....heh :devil

I found AH on the Military Channel. Logged on to the forums in 2008. Finally got a home internet connection in Dec 2010 and went online the same day.

LOOK EVERYBODY!  I GOT MY NAME IN LIGHTS!

I honestly would pitch in an extra $5-10 dollars to see better and more comercials. On Military History, which is pretty much an all WW2 channel and the regular military channel.

Military Channel commercial.
If I had a gun with 3 bullets and I was locked in a room with Bin Laden, Hitler, Saddam and Zipp...  I would shoot Zipp 3 times.
